The Celeb® 250 LED boasts technical innovations that make it an ideal professional imaging tool. The fixture produces a soft, even wraparound lighting quality and produces color faithfully, beautifully on HD or film, in the studio or on location. The Celeb 250 has three Menu options, one white and two color menus. Those who prefer to work with white light can use the "white menu" that gives the user access to Dimming, Kelvin and Green/Magenta control channels. Kelvin range is from 2700K tungsten to 6500K daylight.

In the color menu, the Kelvin range travels from 2500K tungsten to 9900K daylight, and Kino Flo has set up a fourth channel called Gel. The Gel channel includes Kino Flo presets such as blue & green screen, sodium vapor, mercury vapor and over 100 well-known lighting gels. In addition, there is also a fifth channel called Hue Angle and sixth channel, Saturation. These two channels behave similar to a traditional color wheel, where you have white light in the center, and the Hue angle determines the color along a 360-degree range, and Saturation determines how much color is applied. The second color menu provides individual red, green, blue (RGB) control. The RGB menu is a great way to work with apps with predetermined RGB presets or color wheels.

Advantages

Energy Efficiency

The Celeb 250 LED DMX operates on universal AC power or battery power and needs only 0.7A (230VAC). The Celeb LED’s cost savings from low energy and long lamp life continues Kino Flo’s reputation as an environmentally friendly lighting company.

All-in-one Design

The Celeb 250 LED DMX is comprised of a rugged metal alloy fixture which includes state of the art electronics with onboard and DMX dimming and runs universally at 100-240VAC or 24VDC. With three menus, White and two Color menus, presets can be fine-tuned to custom settings from 2700K to 6500K in the white menu and custom settings from 2500K to 9900K in the color menus. In the white menu, the user has access to Green/Magenta control. In the first color menu, there are three additional channels, Gels, Hue Angle and Saturation. In the second color menu, the user has access to individual Red, Green, Blue (RGB) control which works great with Apps with predetermined RGB presets or color wheels.

Light levels do not change when selecting Kelvin settings and there is no color shift while dimming. Slim and lightweight in design, the Celeb LED includes a removable honeycomb louver. The molded corner accessory holders can also be used as a 4-point rope hang. With wireless capability, the Celeb 250 LED can be operated DMX wirelessly as an alternative to DMX cables. The all-in-one design with universal VAC and 24VDC and DMX operation makes the Celeb 250 LED a versatile and portable tool whether it’s in the studio or on location.

Center Mount, Yoke Mount and Pole-Op

The versatility of the Center Mount design allows 360° of unrestricted mounting. The baby receiver lollipop can mount directly onto a baby stand or hang from a grid with a baby pipe clamp. Other baby lollipops are interchangeable for further flexibility. The Yoke Mount fixture includes a welded alloy yoke bale offering unlimited orientation of fixture movement to focus the light when lighting from a grid. The Pole-Op Yoke includes an attached junior pin and offers advantage of lighting from a grid and eliminating the need for ladder access or costly automated rigging and hoist systems.

Long LED Life

Rated lifetime is up to 50,000 Hours. With its long LED life, the Celeb’s unique design will maintain its color-correct color temperature.

True Match® Color-Correct

As with all Kino Flo products, the Celeb 250 LED has been specially formulated to match the spectral distribution curves of today’s HD film and video equipment. The Celeb LED has a high color rendering index of CRI 95. Even while dimming, the fixture is flicker-free and without color shift.

Heat Management Design

For Kino Flo, heat management is a critical design element of fixture design. The physical heat or buildup heat within the LED fixture will directly influence the color temperature, lumen performance and life of an LED.

A well maintained temperature extends the lumen maintenance, color temperature and life of an LED.

Cost Savings

Cost savings attributed to the Celeb 250 LED cover a broad range of concerns:

Low energy costs

Less heat so low air conditioning expenses

No gel replacements because of low heat

Energy Savings Calculations

With the push for reducing fossil fuel consumption, TV studios are looking at cooler more efficient lighting systems to reduce the costs and save energy. Part of this process involves generating energy values to determine savings. One of the most important values is Btu/kWh.

British Thermal Units per Kilowatt Hour

Any light generates a percentage of usable light and the rest in heat. For example, a standard incandescent light bulb converts only 11 percent of its electrical input into visible light, while the rest is dissipated directly as heat. There are energy costs involved in cooling the studio environment. The measure of Btu/kWh is a means of calculating the thermal loads related to operating lighting.

Use the following information to calculate Btu/kWh Watts to Btu:

1 kWh = 3413 Btu/Hr1 Watt = 3.413 Btu/Hr3.413 Btu per Watt-hour

Light Control

Honeycomb Louvers

The Celeb 250 LED includes a 90° Honeycomb Louver.

The Kino Flo high grade plastic Honeycomb Louver controls and focuses the light which narrows the light spread with minimal light loss. A 60° Honeycomb Louver is also available (see Accessories tab).

The spring loaded accessory channel holds up to two the Louvers.

SnapBag and SnapGrid

The SnapBag accessory is a lightweight fabric tailor-made for the Celeb 250 LED. It slips over the fixture and is attached with straps. The reflective material intensifies the soft light. The removable grid cloth attaches to the inside with Velcro. (see Accessory tab for details)

The SnapGrid accessory is constructed of pre-stretched fireproof fabric with a built-in stainless steel frame. It unfolds and snaps into place. It can only be used with the corresponding SnapBag and is attached with Velcro. It cannot be used by itself. (see Accessory tab for details)

Barndoors

Accessory Barndoors are sold in sets of 4. They are designed so that they can be individually mounted.

360° Colour

The Kino Celeb LED DMX includes state of the art features; dial-in variable color temperature control; full-range dimming without color shift; programmable presets; three menu options, one white and two color menus. The “white menu” gives the user access to Dimming, Kelvin, and Green/Magenta control channels. Kelvin range is from 2700K to 5500K.

In the first color menu, the Kelvin range is from 2500K tungsten to 9900K daylight with three additional channels, Gel, Hue Angle and Saturation. The Gel channel includes Kino Flo presets such as blue & green screen, sodium vapor, mercury vapor and over 100 well-known lighting gels. The user can also dial in any color through Hue Angle and Saturation. The second color menu provides individual red, green, blue (RGB) control. This menu is a great way to work with Apps with predetermined RGB presets or color wheels.
